Access denied error when restarting IIS

Hello,

I am getting a Access Denied error when I attempt to
restart IIS using the MMC or the iisreset command from
the command prompt.

I am in the local administrator group. Does anyone know
how I begin to start troubleshooting this? IIS 5 on
Win2k, SP3.

Thanks,
Gina

When do you see the error? What is in the Event Logs (System, Application
and Security)?

Check permissions on C:\Winnt , C:\Winnt\System32 and
C:\Winnt\System32\Inetsrv as well as C:\Program Files\Common Files.

Also make sure you don't have any domain policies that might be causing an
issue.

Thanks.
